A one-day demonstration fueled by some angry residents over the burning of a warehouse Tuesday paralyzed the commercial city of Ganta in Nimba County. The burning of the warehouse came a day after the 8th Judicial Circuit Court in the county ruled in favor of a resident of Ganta, Fred Suah, against four different family members believed to be from the Mandingo ethnic group in a land dispute case that had lingered for over 12 years.
